Looking to supercharge your Monster Hunter Wilds experience with epic mods? This easy-to-follow guide will show you exactly how to install mods for Monster Hunter Wilds on PC. Whether you want to improve visuals, tweak gameplay, or add fun cosmetics, we’ve got you covered. Let’s dive in!

Step 1: Create a Nexus Mods Account

To get started, you’ll need access to mod files. Head over to NexusMods.com and create a free account. This is the go-to hub for most Monster Hunter Wilds mods.

Step 2: Download the Required Tools

Before installing any mods, we need two essential tools:

1. REFramework

REFramework is a critical modding tool that acts as the foundation for many other mods. It includes useful features like free cam, reshade support, FOV control, and ultrawide monitor fixes.

  • Go to the REFramework mod page on Nexus Mods
  • Click the Files tab
  • Choose Manual Download

2. Fluffy Mod Manager

This mod manager provides an easy interface to install, enable, or disable mods with just a click.

  • Go to the Fluffy Mod Manager mod page
  • Hit the Files tab and download it manually

Step 3: Locate Your Game Directory

  1. Open Steam
  2. Right-click on Monster Hunter Wilds in your library
  3. Go to Manage > Browse Local Files
  4. This opens your game’s root folder. Locate the file called monsterhunterwilds.exe

Optional: To view file extensions like .exe, go to your folder settings > View tab > uncheck “Hide extensions for known file types.”

Step 4: Unpack and Install Mods

You’ll need either 7-Zip or WinRAR (both are free) to extract your downloaded files.

Installing REFramework:

  • Open the REFramework .zip file
  • Drag the included .dll file directly into your game’s root directory

Installing Fluffy Mod Manager:

  • Extract the zipped folder
  • Drag the entire Fluffy Mod Manager folder into your game directory

Now open the mod manager:

  • Open the folder
  • Double-click Modmanager.exe
  • If Windows warns you, click More Info > Run Anyway

Step 5: Configure Fluffy Mod Manager

If prompted:

  • Select Monster Hunter Wilds as your game
  • If it can’t find the game, go to the Options tab
  • Click Define Game Install Path
  • Choose your monsterhunterwilds.exe file manually

Step 6: Install Your First Mod (Example: Kitty Big Mod)

  1. Download the mod ZIP file from Nexus Mods (manual download)
  2. Drag the entire ZIP file into the Fluffy Mod Manager
  3. Click Mod List
  4. Toggle the mod ON

That’s it! When you launch the game, the mod should be live (in this case, you’ll see a giant cat companion).

Step 7: Using REFramework In-Game

When you launch the game:

  • Press the Insert key to open the REFramework menu
  • Enable Loose File Loader (some mods require it)
  • Customize your FOV, toggle vignette, and more
  • Enable ultrawide fixes if needed
  • Use Free Cam to explore the world
  • Click on Script Runner to enable/disable mods manually

Step 8: Installing Manual Mods (Example: Better Camps Mod)

  1. Download the mod and extract the ZIP
  2. Inside, you should see a folder structure like reframework > autorun > modfile.lua
  3. Drag the reframework folder directly into your game directory (overwrite if asked)
  4. Confirm the structure matches inside your game folder

Final Tips:

  • Most mods use the mod manager
  • Some require manual installation via REFramework
  • Always read the instructions on each mod’s page for specific requirements

Is It Safe?

Yes, as long as you download from trusted sources like Nexus Mods and follow instructions. Mods are safe and often improve performance or fix annoyances.

Happy Hunting, and enjoy your modded adventure!
